Jamie Principle - Bad Boy (Ron Hardy Reel to Reel Re-Edit)

[@daleabed2145]

I was 14 years old in 1984 living in the north side of chicago,i have crates of all of the house music in vinyl

[@j.c.9784]

Same. I was maybe 15..

[@j.c.9784]

Can we be friends then? Do you have those good records friend? ❤

[@begracefulonline]

I want to buy. They for sale? I lost a good portion in a fire many years ago.

[@walkthenightstudiostv9640]

Bootleg tapes with all the screams and chants was always the best…….to this day!!!!!!!

[@djbhe]

I see it's a few people in this comment section who know what time it is. The rest don't know anything about real House Music. This version of Bad Boy is the original version that Jamie made in his bedroom in 1982. This version is still sought after still today and was never released on vinyl until a few years ago to very limited copies around 500. The version played on WBMX released in 1986 was not the original and didn't sound anywhere close to it and all the Chicago dj's was not happy. I was blessed to get a copie of both 12"s with Bad Boy & Baby Wants To Ride and the second 12" with Your Love & Waiting On My Angel all the original versions.

I used to hear this song at the box often , I appreciate the information.

Jack the box

Ron Hardy one of the best Dj ever

[@muziklova09]

One of the best IMO #MusicBoxMember1985

Love every version of this song, but this one’s my favorite 🔥

[@j.c.9784]

I know right?

[@deborahcooper3814]

mr ron hardy was unique and Jamie principle was the best xxxxx

[@grindflorecordz9305]

Ron had that platform,,,

[@orlandogonzalez2140]

Yes this was the Original track from many of Jamie's songs working with Frankie Knuckles back then. It's a shame the commercial releases of all of Jamie's work weren't the originals Frankie on Ron used to play. Great memories!!! Chicago House!!!!

[@edmessing]

Happy to keep JP a treasured hero of the original sound...... but fuck man how current does he sound here in 2021 , wow

[@jajasmile5321]

This is the first time I've never heard this jam , I can only imagine what it would happen if I heard this song when it was new . This is jam you would play in a small club .

[@thereal001]

Holy crap!! They use to play this edit on WBMX back in the day!!! HOT MIX 5, HOUSE HEAD FOR LYFE THANKS STEVE DALH DISCO DEMOLISHION WELCOMED HOUSE MUSIC! BORN AND BREAD RIGHT HERE IN CHICAGO!!

[@djbonk77]

Alot 80's music is Post Disco

[@thereal001]

Uhhhh all of 80s music is post disco!! Where u born this morning??

[@djbonk77]

Right, but you have some people that do not realise that House is a rebirth of Disco, just like 80's music. Italo Disco is a big influence piece for House music

[@thereal001]

House was NEVER a rebirth of disco! Many house songs are really soul songs re-sampled... kids took the old and made it new again! Urban kids didn't hang out at the disco... we had house parties.... thanks to Frankie Knuckles the club came afterwards.... hence the warehouse!! And the Powerplant!!

[@djbonk77]

It had to be at at least influence by it. Four on floor, the bass lines Everything about this song is Disco to me, just in a electronic way. That's all

[@PaulChapman1bz]

I can only try to imagine how the box went nuts to an original and then again after Ron's treatment. I had London and Ibiza in the 80s

[@edmessing]

Heard this in a Mike Dunn Boiler Room mix and have been trying to ID it for years. I remember humming it to him at some club night in London trying to work out what it was.... I always had the idea the vocal was Mark Almond , yeah i know, so I was yeah yeah hum hum come please Mike you played this blah blah.... he was off but a kind guy to listen.... and without a shadow one of the finest house djs you will ever hear play. All solved now, thanks very much for posting this

[@iamyourfuture808]

i can hear the comparison with early soft cell experiments

Thank you very much for backing me up friend! God love you​@@iamyourfuture808

[@OverlordR]

There was a 1985 Ron Hardy mix (someone took it down, but I got it) that had this, and an early, brittle, funereal version of Fingers, Inc - Mysteries of Love, that was totally different from the 1986 or 1988 versions. Someone out there probably has it.

The only edits Ron did was trigger "Frankie, Jack the Box, and oh" over and over again. This comment is direct from Jamie Principles mouth... this entire song was Jamie's complete doing.

[@clgmore6714]

Born and raised in Chicago, Southside. With all the Diddy coverage, I never made the connection to this song, Diddy heard this and named his record label Bad Boy! And clearly been living a bad boy life he always told us predators always tell you exactly what they're up to just not directly kind of like Trump.Just something to think about 🤔

[@j.c.9784]

This had nothing to do with bad boy aka Diddy. Jamie Principle and Frankie Knuckles were not pedophiles. None of us old school people were into sex traffic and being weirdos. We were weird but not fucking kids or into sex traffic. Yall are weird. Leave us out of that.

You want to find the real party.. Ill tell you where you want to go

But what you want cuzm high.. the price for me is not cheap.

[@Interval144]

Ron Hardy? From Paradise Garage?

[@v.a.993]

No. Paradise Garage was in New York City the resident DJ there was Larry Levan. Ron Hardy was Chicago in clubs like The Warehouse, The Powerplant, and The Music Box.
